FAQs
Can these tights be worn for stage performances?
Yes, their opaque, consistent color makes them highly suitable for professional stage performances.
Are these tights suitable for children?
These specific tights are designed for adults.
Can I wash these in a machine?
No, it is recommended to hand wash these tights to prevent damage to the Spandex blend.
Does the footless design cause rolling at the ankle?
The hem is designed to sit securely on the ankle, though ensuring the correct size is worn will prevent any unwanted bunching.
What is the primary material composition?

Troubleshooting
Visible runs in the fabric
Check your workspace for rough edges or sharp jewelry that may have snagged the material during wear.
Tightness at the waist or legs
Ensure the tights are evenly distributed across the legs; pulling too hard from the bottom can cause uneven tension.
Fabric losing elasticity
Verify that you are not using high-heat settings during washing, as heat is the primary cause of Spandex degradation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Silky footless tights, it is important to handle them with care during both dressing and cleaning. When putting them on, gather the fabric carefully to avoid snagging on fingernails or jewelry. For cleaning, follow the manufacturer's recommendation to hand wash in cool water; do not use harsh detergents or bleach. After washing, gently squeeze out excess water and hang to air dry in a shaded area. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as the heat can compromise the Spandex fibers and significantly reduce the garment's elasticity.
